I actually have a pretty good (IMO) ad for Linux. Since everyone wants to do the "I'm a PC" spin-off, this one would be fitting.
PC: "I'm a PC..."
Mac: "I'm a Mac..."
*Sound coming from off-set*
PC & Mac stop for a moment and look around...then begin to speak again, but the camera goes out of focus and all you hear is mumbling.
*Another sound...this time it's somewhat obvious it's a penguin*
Camera clears up, but Mac & PC are still mumbling. A waddling shadow is starting to grow across the floor from left side...
*Another, louder, penguin sound*
PC & Mac stop talking and look...camera shifts to left side and you see the penguin staring at PC & Mac. PC & Mac get curious and walk over...penguin squawks and PC & Mac get excited and start mumbling to each other, obviously about the penguin.
Fade out. Display: www.ubuntu.com
Quick switch back to the scene...and PC pokes the penguin. *End*
(Curiosity will get people checking)
2nd ad to this is that PC & Mac are redoing the same commercial...same script...but right as they start to mumble you hear lots of penguins around. Camera shifts again to the left and there's a whole flock of penguins, staring again.
Penguins make questioning sounds...
PC & Mac are flustered...begin mumbling excitedly (& in a somewhat scared way)...
Fade out. Display: Are You Ready?

3rd ad is PC & Mac again redoing commercial and are agitated. They start, and before they get finished with the first two lines, they go blurry and start to mumble again.
*Penguin lauging in the background*
Camera turns, this time, to the right, and there's a CGI penguin behind the other camera...which it, in turn, turns back to the other camera; another penguin.
Scene switches to behind the crew which is entirely penguins to a TV showing the scene. Penguins start flashing peace signs, laughing, and goofing off.
Switches back to PC & Mac who's jaws have dropped and are staring at the penguins while they are having fun. *Few seconds of awkward scene of them staring*
Quick switch to tag screen (like a TV switching to snow):
Tag: (Need something here along the lines of "we can do what YOU can do")
